PeaceTech is an organization whose mission is to promote the use of technology and dialogue in building respect and
understanding between groups of people. Through the use of technology to bring people from different groups together
across large distances, we build bridges of understanding, reduce ignorance, and, ultimately, lessen conflict.
We are looking for dynamic young advocates from Metro Manila in the fields of peace building; Information and
Communications Technology (ICT); social entrepreneurship; and sustainable development. This program offers you an
opportunity to work alongside young leaders who are committed to change and who are dedicated to being that change!
The Training

already connected youth from the following cities:
1. Zamboanga City with Metro Manila
2. Iligan City with Metro Manila

To complete the program cycle, we are selecting 20 youth leaders from Cotabato City and connect them with 20 youth
leaders from Metro Manila for a training that would provide them with skills and theory in the following areas:
• Facilitation and Peace Building;
